Oh yeah, that happened
>>224085457>Make the butler-bodyguard blackWtf were they thinking?
Where is she now? Can she still make it big?
>>224085529she got married (to me)

>>224085457I enjoyed the books as a kidBy the time the movies came I wasn't a kid anymore so I'm just glad I've never watched them and can keep my find memories from the books
>>224085529>make it big?as big as this Toblerone?
>>224085457I remember seeing the books listed in scholastic magazines. didn't care then, dont care now
>>224086203>HURTS MY HANDS
>>224086319its a pretty great series that has now also been tainted by this shit movie
>>224086771>that has now also been tainted by this shit movieNot how this works unless you're a melodramatic fag, the author is dead baby
>>224086812Underrated post
>>224086812i, the (You), agree with this because my post's tone did not match my intent. it's the LEGACY of the books that is tainted and will now be pre-emptively dropped by people who could have enjoyed them and that is sad. film adaptations can only work if they absolutely obliterate the source material anyway.
>>224085480You know what's funny? In the books Holly is brown and Butler is a hapa. They could've easily cast a black girl as Holly and a chink as Butler. But they went with a white girl as Holly and a nog as Butler. Because that makes total sense.
>>224085480I remember back in the day everyone was fan casting Jason Statham as Butler.
>>224086943I would've cast Dave Autista
>>224086943In my heart he will always be Agent 47.
Artemis Fowl is forever linked in my mind with a memory from Snowmageddon 2010 when mom and I took turns all day long clearing our driveway of 3 feet of snow, and when my shifts were done I'd go inside and read pornographic artemis fowl fanfics on the family computer.
>>224087082Anons will post the most degenerate shit like this then claim to be ultra conservative Christians in the very next post

>>224087082North Texas?
>>224087082based
>>224085457I'll never forgive Disney for what they did to my boy Kenny. From Hamlet to this slop, what a tragedy.
>>224085457I liked The Supernaturalist more. Artemis Fowl was Colfer's weaker work.
>>224086203I feel like that pic is more well known than the movie itself at this point
>>224085457She looks like my Dragons Dogma 2 pawn
>>224086899Whats the difference?
Shartemis Foul
There's a new series coming out which could fix it.But giving what they did "fixing" Percy Jackson, I have a load of doubts.
>>224085949No, I don't.
>>224088805without looking it up what I remember from that book is it was about a group of individuals who due to close calls to death can converse with the dead, and there was a futuristic race car sequence somewhere in it
It’s sad they got such a cute girl to play Holly in such a dumb movie
>>224085457>Butler supposed to be Eurasian>makes him a nignog
>>224086160How many of the books did you read?Only first three are alright. Rest are censored and make a mockery of the series. Then he goes on to ruin The Hitchiker’s Guide to the Galaxy.I’m glad Douglas Adams killed off everyone at the end anticipating this faggotry and gave the series a proper ending prior.
>>224091456I remember really liking Lost Colony. Time Paradox was weird and retarded though, I didn't bother reading the ones after that.
>>224087203huh?
>>224091456I really only loved the first book desu.
>>224085457Movie is actually a 10/10 because you can jerk it through that little nymph and when I say nymph I mean nymph
>>224086850Nobody saw this movie, man. It’s sweet of you to care so much but I don’t think anyone mentions Artemis Fowl in any context.
So stupid to genderswap Julius when Holly's whole arc is that she's the first woman in the LEP and has to deal with all of that. Also Butler is supposed to be this giant hulking Chechen or Kazakh guy and instead he's just fat and black.
Someone post Dame Judi Dench, staring directly into the camera before I piss myself
>>224093178I thought I had that webm, but couldn't find it.
>>224085457That movie was suuch dogshit I've chosen to forget it.I read at least 5-6 Artemis Fowl books when I was between the ages of 10 to 16 and always has great experiences with them.>>224088805Was a great book also, the car drag race scene was kino like >>224091106 pointed out. The futuristic sci-fi setting was different than the one out of the Artemis Fowl books so also a nice refreshment.I won't repeat what people said in the thread (too many changes at clash with the core of the books) but that shit was dreadful.I'm just happy I got to see it at 30 and not at 15 when those books were relevant for me. That would have messed up the good feelings I had with the book series.
>>224095477On the bright side, I'm sure the movie has gotten some new people into the books.
>>224086130I came here for the webm and was disappoint
>>224093178>“You know, Holly, with great power comes great responsibility. Briar Cudgeon called it "the People's Burden." Myself, I just call it as I see it: the responsibility of the master to discipline the servant.">Root looks directly at the camera.>"The mud men, the goblins, the dwarfs... It's our responsibility to civilize them. And if we can't? Then they shall dangle from a 100 year old Oak. The Day of the Ritual is near, Holly. We'll have every mud man in this country dead or in chains in 10 years, and may God have me shot by someone trying to disarm a bomb this very night if I'm wrong. God bless Koboi labs.
>>224086203ive never had a toblerone, is it any good?
>>224091487Lost Colony feels like he was actually trying to write something new after he cemented Artemis' character development.I never found out until years later that he cucked out because shippers had an autism fit over the new character. She seemed fine to me. A good foil who was nowhere near as smart as she thought she was, but smart enough to cause a problem.
Dave Bautista should have been Butler.But even with better casting this still would have been a shit movie
in story western /ss/ never>>224097334god, that would've been cool
>>224096381no its overrated shit, the chocolate itself tastes bad and cheap and theres little nuggets of something in it that sticks to your teeth for a bit. if i wanted that i would just eat snickers. overall awful chocolate
>>224085457It always should have been an animation, and it should have never been a Disney joint. I get they owned the IP since practically the beginning, but it was always a bad fit.
>>224092742it's genuinely retarded. Holly being discriminated against for being a woman is the cause of the entire first book's story, and an eternal plot element through basically the entire series. THEY MANAGED TO DIVERSITY CAST SO HARD IT MADE THE STORY LESS WOKE
>>224092742One cannot overstate how little anyone involved in this movie cared. I'm convinced Disney only dragged it out of development hell just to protect the trademarks.
my name is artemis fowl
>>224087082Heartwarming.
>>224087082hehehehehewholesome
>>224091456I think I only read the first two before I discovered Animorphs and went all in on that instead.
>>224086850meh, when I was a kid I just read whatever had an interesting cover and blurb, I doubt kids have heard of the movie in the first place it's only here that anyone remembers at all.
>>224096316I always thought this was from GoTG
To be fair, even at that time it was the "Oh yeah that happened" franchise. Like I forgot Eragon was a thing for a while for over 5+ years until today.
Eoin Colfer is a libshit who understands nothing of the world and wants his readers to be the same. Don't let his books near your kids.
>>224096381yes dunk them in tea
>>224098587Seriously. Just look at his graphic novels
